    All of my pics from the track rental on 10-14-06

    Well, I'm disappointed how the pics came out. I was shooting the pics with my left hand while trying to video with my right and I didn't have time to review the pics while at the track. Due to the rental being at night the camera adjusted for the low light by extending its shutter open time which unfortunately made for a lot of blurry pics. I used a tripod on purpose to try to avoid this, but it didn't matter when the cars were in motion. I uploaded them all anyway just in case anyone wanted them. These are ALL of the pics I have, good or bad they're all posted. If I missed anyone I'm sorry, but I did the best I could with not being able to feel my fingers! LOL!

    Thanks to Troy for his help too!

    Thanks guys.

    As for the videos, I'm about ready to throw my freaking computer off of the wall. I've been pissing with these damn videos since 7:00 and I've had nothing but problems. I don't like my editing software, and when I try to use windows movie maker the damn thing freezes up on me. If I have to use my software I can't figure out how to shorten the transitions up and make titles. i may be forced to just have a hacked together video with no breaks between runs and a super quick title over a run in the beginning. This really sucks as I have some great footage. I'm about to call it a night, I'll work on it again tomorrow I guess.

    Alicia you caught it good in the past too. Thanks for all the time and work that You, Mike, Dan and his wife put into it. It could not have worked out better. I got 10 runs and could've had many more.

    You didn't do too bad for videoing at the same time, Paul !
    I feel your pain on the video software stuff... I use Studio 9, and it is a memory hog, has to be restarted after about every 4 video edits, after re-booting the computer to help with the memory stack-up. It can take some time !!
